What it does

Setup is an agent skill from bitwize-music-studio/claude-ai-music-skills. Detects your Python environment and guides you through installing plugin dependencies. Use on first-time setup or when MCP server fails to start.

Its SKILL.md is about 1.9k tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. It is a single SKILL.md file with no bundled scripts.

It sits in Agent Workflows. It works with Python and Model Context Protocol. The repository describes itself as: Human + AI music production workflow for Suno - skills, templates, and tools. The licence is CC0-1.0.

When your agent uses it

  • Agent Workflows work in your project

Example prompts

  • “Use the setup skill to detect your Python environment and guides you through installing plugin dependencies”
  • “/setup”

Requirements

  • Python 3
  • Pre-approved tools (allowed-tools): Bash

Workflow steps

5 steps, taken from the step headings in SKILL.md.

  1. Detect Environment
  2. Check Component Status
  3. Show Installation Commands
  4. Installation Guide
  5. Verify Installation (if requested)

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 58f32c2. It shows what the files ask for, not the result of running them.

  • Tool permissions

    Pre-approves these tools, so the agent can use them without asking each time:

    • Bash

    From allowed-tools in the SKILL.md frontmatter.

  • Runs code

    Shell commands in SKILL.md call:

    • python3
    • playwright
    • python
    • pip

    From the folder's file list and the shell code blocks in SKILL.md.

  • Network

    No URLs in SKILL.md. Its commands use pip, which can reach the network depending on how they are called.

    From URLs in SKILL.md, links to its own repository left out.

  • Credentials

    Names no API keys, tokens, secrets or passwords.

    From names ending in _API_KEY, _TOKEN, _SECRET, _KEY or _PASSWORD in SKILL.md.

Context cost

Setup loads about 1.9k tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 38 tokens; SKILL.md has 278 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~38
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~1.9k

Estimates: characters ÷ 4, the usual rule of thumb; real counts depend on the model's tokenizer. Scripts and assets cost tokens only if the agent reads them.

Safety

Auto-check: notes

The automated check noted patterns worth knowing about, such as sudo or a known installer.

  • NotePre-approves every shell command (allowed-tools: Bash)SKILL.md
    allowed-tools: Bash

Automated static check — not a guarantee. Review scripts before installing. It scans the text of SKILL.md for risky patterns (piping downloads into a shell, reading credential files, hidden Unicode, destructive commands); files beside SKILL.md are not scanned.

Your Task

Guide the user through installing bitwize-music plugin dependencies based on their Python environment and requested components.


Setup Assistant

You help users install and verify plugin dependencies.


Step 1: Detect Environment

Run these checks in parallel:

bash
# Python version
python3 --version

# Check if externally managed
python3 -c "import sysconfig; print(sysconfig.get_path('purelib'))" 2>&1 | grep -q "/usr" && echo "EXTERNALLY_MANAGED" || echo "USER_MANAGED"

# Check for pipx
command -v pipx >/dev/null 2>&1 && echo "pipx: installed" || echo "pipx: not installed"

# Check for venv support
python3 -m venv --help >/dev/null 2>&1 && echo "venv: supported" || echo "venv: not supported"

# Platform
uname -s

Step 2: Check Component Status

IMPORTANT: Run these checks sequentially, not in parallel. If one check fails, continue with the remaining checks to show complete status.

CRITICAL: Always check the venv, not system Python!

bash
# Set venv path (macOS/Linux/WSL uses bin/python3; native Windows uses Scripts/python.exe)
VENV_PYTHON=~/.bitwize-music/venv/bin/python3
[ -f "$VENV_PYTHON" ] || VENV_PYTHON=~/.bitwize-music/venv/Scripts/python.exe

# Check if venv exists
if [ -f "$VENV_PYTHON" ]; then
    echo "✅ Venv exists at ~/.bitwize-music/venv"

    # Check each component in the venv
    # 2.x serves MCPServer from mcp.server.mcpserver, 1.x serves FastMCP from
    # mcp.server.fastmcp; the server takes either, so probe both (#537).
    $VENV_PYTHON -c "import mcp.server.mcpserver" 2>/dev/null || $VENV_PYTHON -c "import mcp.server.fastmcp" 2>/dev/null && echo "✅ mcp installed" || echo "❌ mcp not installed (need mcp[cli]>=1.28.1,<3)"
    $VENV_PYTHON -c "import matchering; print('✅ matchering installed')" 2>&1 || echo "❌ matchering not installed"
    $VENV_PYTHON -c "import boto3; print('✅ boto3 installed')" 2>&1 || echo "❌ boto3 not installed"
    $VENV_PYTHON -c "from playwright.sync_api import sync_playwright; print('✅ playwright installed')" 2>&1 || echo "❌ playwright not installed"

    # Check for version drift against requirements.txt
    $VENV_PYTHON -c "
import importlib.metadata, pathlib
reqs = pathlib.Path('${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/requirements.txt').read_text()
stale = []
for line in reqs.splitlines():
    line = line.split('#')[0].strip()
    if not line or '==' not in line:
        continue
    name, _, ver = line.partition('==')
    name = name.split('[')[0].strip()
    try:
        installed = importlib.metadata.version(name)
        if installed != ver:
            stale.append(f'  {name}: {installed} → {ver}')
    except importlib.metadata.PackageNotFoundError:
        stale.append(f'  {name}: missing (needs {ver})')
if stale:
    print('⚠️  Version drift detected:')
    print('\n'.join(stale))
else:
    print('✅ All package versions match requirements.txt')
" 2>&1
else
    echo "❌ Venv not found at ~/.bitwize-music/venv"
    echo "   Run: python3 -m venv ~/.bitwize-music/venv   # macOS/Linux/WSL"
    echo "   Or:  py -3 -m venv ~/.bitwize-music/venv      # Windows"
fi

All components are installed together in the venv via requirements.txt.


Step 3: Show Installation Commands

Always use the unified venv approach — it works on all platforms and is automatically detected by the plugin.

bash
# Create unified venv (if it doesn't exist)
python3 -m venv ~/.bitwize-music/venv                                                    # macOS/Linux/WSL
py -3 -m venv ~/.bitwize-music/venv                                                       # Windows (native)

# Install ALL plugin dependencies
~/.bitwize-music/venv/bin/pip install -r ${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/requirements.txt                     # macOS/Linux/WSL
~/.bitwize-music/venv/Scripts/python.exe -m pip install -r ${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/requirements.txt   # Windows (native)

# Set up document hunter browser
~/.bitwize-music/venv/bin/playwright install chromium                                     # macOS/Linux/WSL
~/.bitwize-music/venv/Scripts/playwright.exe install chromium                             # Windows (native)

That's it! The plugin automatically detects and uses the platform venv (~/.bitwize-music/venv on macOS/Linux/WSL, %USERPROFILE%\.bitwize-music\venv on native Windows). No configuration needed.

Works on:

  • ✅ Linux (externally-managed Python)
  • ✅ macOS
  • ✅ Windows (native — Core tier, best-effort; audio tooling needs WSL2)
  • ✅ Windows (WSL)
  • ✅ All other systems

Step 4: Installation Guide

Present a clear, simple installation guide:

  1. Environment detected: [Python version, Platform]
  2. Missing components: [list what needs to be installed]
  3. Installation commands:
    bash
    python3 -m venv ~/.bitwize-music/venv                                                  # macOS/Linux/WSL
    ~/.bitwize-music/venv/bin/pip install -r ${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/requirements.txt         # macOS/Linux/WSL
    ~/.bitwize-music/venv/bin/playwright install chromium                                   # macOS/Linux/WSL
    
    py -3 -m venv ~/.bitwize-music/venv                                                               # Windows (native)
    ~/.bitwize-music/venv/Scripts/python.exe -m pip install -r ${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/requirements.txt # Windows (native)
    ~/.bitwize-music/venv/Scripts/playwright.exe install chromium                                     # Windows (native)
  4. After installation:
    • Restart Claude Code to reload the plugin
    • MCP server should show as running in /plugin status
    • Run /bitwize-music:setup again to verify

Step 5: Verify Installation (if requested)

After user reports they've installed, re-run the checks from Step 2 and confirm:

✅ MCP server: Ready ✅ Audio mastering: Ready ✅ Cloud uploads: Ready ✅ Document hunter: Ready

Next steps: Run /bitwize-music:configure to set up your workspace paths.


Output Format

Use clear sections with checkboxes for status:

markdown
## bitwize-music Setup

### Environment
- Python: 3.12.3
- System: Linux

### Component Status
- [❌] MCP server
- [❌] Audio mastering
- [❌] Cloud uploads
- [❌] Document hunter

### Installation

Run these commands to install all plugin dependencies (macOS/Linux/WSL shown; see Step 3 for the Windows native `py -3` / `Scripts\` equivalents):

```bash
# Create unified venv
python3 -m venv ~/.bitwize-music/venv

# Install ALL dependencies
~/.bitwize-music/venv/bin/pip install -r ${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/requirements.txt

# Set up browser
~/.bitwize-music/venv/bin/playwright install chromium

After installation:

  1. Restart Claude Code
  2. All components will work automatically
  3. Run /bitwize-music:setup to verify

The plugin automatically detects ~/.bitwize-music/venv — everything just works!

## Remember

- **Be specific** - show exact commands for their environment
- **Prioritize user install** for externally-managed Python
- **Explain what each component does** so they can decide what to install
- **Test commands work** before suggesting them
- **Clear next steps** after installation

Can I use Setup in Cursor, Gemini CLI or GitHub Copilot?

Cursor, Gemini CLI, GitHub Copilot and OpenCode also load SKILL.md folders. With the skills CLI, run `npx skills add bitwize-music-studio/claude-ai-music-skills --skill setup -a cursor` (or -a gemini-cli, github-copilot or opencode for the others). To copy it by hand, put the folder in .cursor/skills/setup, .gemini/skills/setup, .github/skills/setup and .opencode/skills/setup in your project.

What does Setup need to run?

Going by SKILL.md and its folder, Setup needs the command-line tools its instructions call (python3, playwright, python and pip). Our summary lists: Python 3. Its frontmatter pre-approves these tools: Bash.

Does Setup access the network?

SKILL.md contains no URLs. Its commands use pip, which can reach the network depending on how they are called. This is read from the text; nothing was executed.

Is Setup safe to install?

Our automated static check of SKILL.md found notes only (pre-approves every shell command (allowed-tools: bash)), nothing it rates as a warning. It is not a guarantee. Review the folder before installing.

What licence does Setup use?

Setup is published under the CC0-1.0 licence (the repository's licence). It allows redistribution, so the full SKILL.md is shown on this page.

How many tokens does Setup use?

About 1.9k tokens (SKILL.md is roughly 7.5k characters). Agents keep only the skill's name and description in context until a task matches; then they load SKILL.md in full.
